Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Significant to Me

Beloved, let’s talk!

I am aware of your innermost thoughts. I see what you are thinking, however, your thoughts do not always align with Mine. I have called you to advance My Kingdom in the Earth. I have equipped and positioned you in authority and told you to rule in the midst of your enemies. Yet, you stand still, paralyzed by thoughts of insignificance. You are not insignificant. 

It’s time for everyone in My kingdom to step up and contribute as I have assigned each of you to do. Every person in My K

ingdom is significant, and that includes you.

Think about this, if I consider the sparrows significant, then you are much more valuable and significant to Me.

It’s now time to finally cast off the thought constraints that are holding you back. These mindsets of insignificance lead to self-sabotage and they create barriers that prevent you from receiving the fullness of My blessing and favour in your life; the favour that is required for your assigned calling and duties.

So, shift your thinking. Stop focusing on your own thoughts and put Me at the forefront of your mind. Allow My thoughts to guide you into action. You are indeed significant to Me, and My thoughts are the only ones that should matter to you.

Activation: It’s time to take every negative thought captive! Using scripture to create affirmations is a powerful way to remind yourself daily of your God-given significance and authority. Get a set of Post-it notes or 3×5 cards and make a set of affirmation cards based on the scriptures below and any others that speak to your significance in God’s kingdom. 

Include declarations like “I am significant to God,” “God has equipped and positioned me in authority,” and “I am called to rule in the midst of my enemies.” Place these cards in areas where you will see them every day, such as your bathroom mirror, work desk, car dashboard, etc. Each time you see a card, say the affirmation out loud to remind yourself of the truth of your significance and authority in Christ Jesus.

We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ,

2 Corinthians 10:5 (AMP)

Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

Colossians 3:2 (NKJV)

What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin[a]? But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it.

Matthew 10:29 (NLT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Take Up Your Cross

23 And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself[set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]. 

24 For whoever wishes to save his life [in this world] will [eventually] lose it [through death], but whoever loses his life [in this world] for My sake, he is the one who will save it [from the consequences of sin and separation from God].

Luke 9:23-24 (AMP)

When I carried my cross through the streets of Jerusalem, it was an outward acknowledgment of the spiritual alignment with the Father’s will that I had already accepted at Gethsemane. Not My will, but His be done. It was the sign that no matter the cost, My life was in alignment with His purposes.

I have asked you to take up your cross daily, and follow Me. 

This means that every day you must intentionally surrender each part of your life to come into alignment with My purposes. You must put aside any agenda, ambition, pride or offence and choose to re-align yourself to Me every day.

At the start of your day set your heart towards Mine, sacrificing your life to Me and allowing My Spirit to work in you. But this is not where it ends. There will be multiple opportunities within your day to stop, examine your heart, and re-align with My will and purposes for you. Choices to rise above anger and choose kindness; to resist putting yourself first and instead to build up another; to rise above your emotional responses and to seek My counsel first before reacting. Re-align your spirit to Mine at every opportunity that you have.

Activation: Sit with Jesus and ask Him to show you the reality of what it means to take up your cross daily. Use the verses below from Psalm 5 and picture yourself laying out your life on the altar before Jesus and the Spirit coming as fire to burn off all of your wordly intentions, so that only a pure heart remains. Be intentional throughout your day to take every opportunity that you have to re-align yourself back to His will and purposes.

2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray.

3 In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice; in the morning I will prepare [a prayer and a sacrifice] for You and watch and wait [for You to speak to my heart].

Psalm 5:2-3 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Attune

There is a download that only comes in My presence. Partake of My Word so the great exchange happens. Being sensitised, tenderised and aware of Me; understand who I am, what I am like by examining how I’ve acted in the past. I love to reveal Myself and set pure truth ablaze in your heart. 

But, when you choose to attune yourself to Me – to present yourself bare before Me – you grow in awareness of how close I am. In this closeness, a transformation transpires. A heaven originated work where you and I are of one accord. Can you see Me? 

Activation: Picture yourself uploading all that you are and have been before the throne. As a child, as a teen, young adult and present day. Take your time. Then visualise Holy Spirit downloading all that you need for the hour, your days, and your future. Ask Holy Spirit what He is focusing on during this season of your life. Ask Him to give you a picture of what His goal is for this season. Write it down and ask Him to attune your heart to Him in new ways to expand your understanding of His Rulership within the territory of your heart.

7 In Him we have redemption [that is, our deliverance and salvation] through His blood, [which paid the penalty for our sin and resulted in] the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace 

8 which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and understanding [with practical insight] 

9 He made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, 

10 with regard to the fulfillment of the times [that is, the end of history, the climax of the ages]—to bring all things together in Christ, [both] things in the heavens and things on the earth.

Ephesians 1:7-10 (AMP)

13 In Him, you also, when you heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation, and [as a result] believed in Him, were stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit [the One promised by Christ] as owned and protected [by God]. 

14 The Spirit is the [a]guarantee [the first installment, the pledge, a foretaste] of our inheritance until the redemption of God’s own [purchased] possession [His believers], to the praise of His glory.

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Expect Fruitfulness

Beloved, break free from barrenness and expect greater! 

Raise your expectations to expect fruitfulness, multiplication, and reward. By doing this, it increases your capacity to receive what I have for you and what I am releasing to you in this hour.

In this hour, I am releasing accelerated multiplication to those who have been both willing and obedient to My instructions. This is the reward. Those who have faithfully followed My Word and My counsel will see the fruitfulness in double measure. However, to receive the fullness of this, you must rid yourself of any mindset of failure or barrenness, no matter how deeply entrenched it is in your heart. Even a shadow of thought or a whisper of barrenness can limit what I want to multiply.  Beloved, make the decision to be done with barrenness at any level once and for all. Be vulnerable with Me and work with Me to dismantle and destroy all false ideologies and mindsets in you that do not support what I am doing in this hour.

My beloved, you have waited long enough. You have hesitated and procrastinated, let the approval of others hold you back, and have been disappointed for too long. But now is the time to embrace what I am doing and step into the now with Me. I am the LORD, and I am the one who sets the times and seasons, not the calendar, the clock, or the evil one. And I say that this is the due season. What did not work before will work now. I have graced this time for fruitfulness, multiplication, and reward, and you will see it. Expect it!

Activation: Sit with the Holy Spirit and ask Him to search your heart and identify any shadow or whisper of barrenness that exists in you that you may be unaware of. Let Him identify it and then write it down detailing any feelings of barrenness, failure, or limiting mindsets you may be holding onto. Be honest and vulnerable. With His assistance, write a ‘Barrenness to Fruitfulness Letter’. In the letter, write to yourself from the perspective of one who has fully embraced God’s promise of fruitfulness and multiplication. Describe the changes, breakthroughs, and blessings you’ve received. Regularly read the letter to remind yourself of God’s promises and what is possible through faith in Him.

Abram Promised a Son

After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying,

“Do not be afraid, Abram,
I am your shield;
Your reward [for obedience] shall be very great.”

Genesis 15:1 (AMP)

If you have a willing heart to let Me help you, and if you will obey Me, you will feast on the blessings of an abundant harvest.

Isaiah 1:19 (TPT)

The Fertility of Zion

1  “Shout for joy, O barren one, she who has not given birth; break forth into joyful shouting and rejoice, she who has not gone into labor [with child]! For the [spiritual] sons of the desolate one will be more numerous than the sons of the married woman,” says the Lord.
2 “Enlarge the site of your tent [to make room for more children]; stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not spare them; lengthen your tent ropes and make your pegs (stakes) firm [in the ground].
3 “For you will spread out to the right and to the left; and your descendants will take possession of nations and will inhabit deserted cities.

Isaiah 54:1-3 (AMP)
